Funded Activity Summary

Multiscale modeling of flexible fibrous suspensions under flow. The outcome of this work will be a comprehensive theoretical framework by which microstructural information is distilled into an accurate multiscale model of fibre suspensions, readily applicable to industrial situations. This work will have a direct impact on the design capability and performance of a wide range of mechanisms and industrial processes involving fibres. The development of better models for industrially useful suspensions offers a competitive advantage for a diverse range of Australian industries, from the paper manufacture sector, to the production of fibre-filled composite materials.
